I have engaged in these little exercises in the past.

Either privately for myself, or maybe even posted something once upon a time. Picking each game on the schedule.

It's pure entertainment.

The odds of getting each W and L right throughout the season before it starts are astronomical.

There will unexpected wins and unexpected losses, as well as the predicted ones.

The best one can do is look at a group of games and say "ok, I think we can get 3 out those 5" or "2 out of those 5", or whatever.

Or just look at the home and away schedule and guess how many home games vs road games you think they can win.

And still get it wrong.

Here's the question an objective fan has to ask. How often has the Vegas over/under been way off on my team?
The answer is...very seldom. 99 would be an example where they got us way wrong. Are there others recently?

So maybe once every 20 years, our team defies expectations set by the oddsmakers? In a positive way.

Will that be this year?

If I had to bet, I'd bet the over, but I wouldn't bet the farm.

  Favorable early schedule could put Rams on fast track

  Be excited but keep in mind our MNF opener last year.

  Broncos, Texans, Ravens show the path to 8-9 wins

  Rams remind me of Texans

  Schedules like this are based on the previous year
